Miller was announced to be part of the creative team on the new project earlier this week. Steven Grant, Korkut Oztekin and Declan Shalvey will also be working on the book.

"The police force has disbanded," said BOOM! of the plot. "The people of Detroit have been evicted from their homes. ED-209s and OCP officers run the streets. With OCP's vision for Delta City well underway, Robocop may be his city's last hope.

"This is Robocop's last stand, as it was always intended to be."

The 300 creator also wrote a draft of RoboCop 2, little of which made it into the final film.
